One may argue that doing this will allow the child to grow up safely. Yet, there are adverse consequences of not letting children experience life for themselves. Do you relate to this topic? Is your parent a helicopter parent?

10 Psychology Problems Caused by Parenting Behavior

published:16 Jul 2017

With most psychological issues, the reasons are quite trivial: childhood emotional impressions. You should know that your low self-esteem and anxiety might be caused by certain parenting mistakes.
TIMESTAMPS
Lack of independence 0:36
Depression, a feeling of guilt 1:35
Inability to rest and relax completely 2:25
Harmful addictions and extreme sports 2:55
Personal life issues 3:29
Search for a parent-partner 4:01
Suppression of own talents and lack of initiative 4:19
Closeness, suppression of emotions 4:46
Extremely low self-esteem, desire to be like someone else 5:11
Lack of independence, irresponsibility 5:45
SUMMARY
Parenting mistakes are quite common, but their price is too high. With our own unrestraint, overindulgence, inconsistency, or over-busyness, we make our children nervous and naughty.
You are capable of avoiding this. You only have to cherish, understand, respect, and love your kids.
Do any of these situations sound familiar to you? Then show this video to your parents. If you’re still a child, they’ll probably change their behavior for the better.
